Glenn M. Gravitt (72), of Asheboro, NC, passed away on Monday, January 12, 2026, at Randolph Hospital in Asheboro, NC.

Glenn was born on January 18th, 1953, in Winston-Salem, NC, to Howard and Jayne Gravitt. He graduated from UNC Chapel Hill, where he met his wife, Jo. Glenn enjoyed life and worked in a variety of jobs. His greatest joy was spending time with his family and friends. He lived a remarkable life of integrity and trust in Jesus. He was resilient and full of faith, even through the trials of lung cancer. He was a courageous man, a generous father, and a devoted grandfather.

Glenn is survived by his beloved wife, Jo, of Asheboro; a daughter, Hannah, of Raleigh, NC; three sons, Nathan (Katie) of Lynchburg, VA, Sam of Lynchburg, VA, John David (Erin) of Asheboro, NC; six grandchildren-Quill (10), Abigail (9), Ferris (6), Jericho (2), Danielle (2), and the newest baby arriving in March; and his brother, Joe (Valerie), of Carmel, IN. He was preceded in death by his parents, Howard and Jayne, and his brother, James.

A celebration of life service will be held at Central Methodist Church on Saturday, February 28, at 1:00 PM, followed by light refreshment and fellowship.

In lieu of flowers, the family is asking that memorials be made to one of the following: Mission India, Your Choices Randolph, A Place for the Heart or Timothy Two, International.
